Construction
- 3-strand laid construction from PP staple fibre (Spleitex®)
- 4-strand ropes available up to 26 mm Ø
- Hemp colour
Good to know
- Halyards, sheets on traditional vessels, can also be used as mooring line
- A light, floating material (should therefore not be used for anchor warps)
- The material is manufactured with traditional fibre spinning procedures and thus exhibits typical hemp-like behaviour
- Very high break loads compared to natural fibre ropes
- High chemical resistance
- Very good UV-resistance gives excellent service life
- Low elongation
- Free of THC
